Cleaned a pub today and they have had seagrass fitted in the dining area they only want it to last for three years can protection be put on seagrass or not?I know it can only be drycleaned using microsponges but being in the dining area its going to get in a right mess would it be possible to wet clean it?God only knows why they picked this type of carpet for a pub

Hi Steve

Seagrass should never be 'wet' cleaned under any circumstances, you will be taking a massive risk if you do.

As for protection it would hardly be worth it to them, as the footfall would soon break down any protection applied.If you do decide to offer some kind of protection then once again don't use any water based products.

It is recommended that Seagrass is professionaly cleaned every six months,you could offer them this using a dry blend system such as Host and in this enviroment it they may well be advised to carry it out every 3 months.
